Fanciful in most respects, the movie nevertheless included startling effects, entirely novel at the time, including forced perspective, superimposition, cross-cutting editing, makeup, and animation. The movie was shot in black and white and then each frame was painstakingly colored by hand; the screenshots below preserve the restored colorings. The film starred Victor André, Bleuette Bernon, Brunnet, Jeanne d'Alcy, Henri Delannoy, Depierre, Farjaut, Kelm, and Georges Méliès.
